‘Shaarda’ (1981) was produced by K K Talwar and was directed by Lekh Tandon. The cast included Jeetendra, Rameshwari, Usha Kiran, Om Prakash, Deena Pathak, Kalpana Iyer, Madan Puri, Jagdeep, Iftekhar, Pinchoo Kapoor etc. Sarika and Raj Babbar made guest appearances. The story of the film seems to be partly inspired from a Hollywood film, ‘How To Murder Your Wife’ (1965). While the Hollywood film was a black comedy, Lekh Tandon converted his Hindi film into a family drama. The shooting of the film started in 1978. The film got released on April 10, 1981.

Today’s song is a Bhajan from the Religious film (Bhakti Pradhan)- Narsi Mehta-1957.

This film was made by Producer/Director Devendra Goyal for his banner Goyal Cine Corporation, Bombay. The music was by Ravi aka Ravishankar Sharma, who had debuted as an independent Music Director, with the film Vachan in 1955. In a very short time, he had earned a good name. There were popular bhajans like, Darshan do Ghanshyam, Jay Govinda Gopala, Vaishnav jan to tene kahiye, Sab ki naiya paar lagaiya’ Ramdhun lagi etc. On the whole this film was full of religious fervour, good music and a show of histrionic talents by experienced artists.

Today’s song is from a social film – Suhag-1958.

This was a film dubbed from its Tamil version titled “Tang Malai Ragsiyam”. There was a Kannada version too, titled ” Ratnagiri Rahasyam”. Both the South Indian films were made simultaneously in 1957. The Hindi version was made in 1958. I have not seen this film. All 3 versions were directed by B.R. aka Budagaru Ramakrishnaiah Panthulu. For him this was his DEBUT film as a Director. Not only him, but even his assistant Director – Puttanna Kanagal made his DEBUT in direction. Before direction, both were mere actors. Even in later years, they appeared in a few films as actors.

In this article, I am presenting a song, ‘suno aye duniyawaalon ek naya paighaam laaya hoon’ from an incomplete film, ‘Naya Mandir’ (1961). It was directed by Kishore Sahu. It had Manoj Kumar, Mala Sinha and Mehmood in main roles. I came to know of this song on the audio album of ‘Film Hi Film’ (1983). Unfortunately, this song seems to have been deleted from the VCD of the film available on one of the video sharing platforms. Since video clip of the song is available in continuation of the scene from ‘Film Hi Film. (1983), it can be construed that the song was included in the film.

Shahab Ahmed, the producer of ‘Film Hi Film’ (1983) had earlier produced ‘Cinema Cinema’ (1979). During his visit to Bombay Film Laboratory, he was astonished to see cans of more than 2000 unfinished films lying in the laboratory. Shahab Ahmed thought that a lot of efforts had gone into making these films which unfortunately remained incomplete for various reasons. So, he came with the idea of incorporating scenes and songs from a few select incomplete films to make a full-length feature film [Source: ‘…and Pran’ (2005) by Bunny Rueben].

(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-47)
—————————–

In our journey of bringing Kavi Pradeep songs on this blog today we add one more song penned by him. This song is from the movie ‘Veer Bhimsen-1964’. This movie was produced & directed by Chandrakant for Joy Films, Bombay. The video of this movie available on internet has the date of passing of Censor Board as 19.12.1974 which must be its date of renewal of the certificate. From it we can guess that the movie was initially passed by Censor Board on 19.12.1964 for its first run. One more movie with this same title was later released in 1985 (passed by Censor Board on 24.04.195). Kavi Pradeep was the lyricist for both the movies.
